You will hold a PhD in Materials Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related discipline, alongside expertise aligned to battery technologies, electrochemical energy storage, or advanced materials research.
We are particularly interested in candidates with expertise in one or more of:
-
lithium-ion, sodium-ion, lithium-sulfur, or solid-state batteries
- battery materials and electrochemistry
- advanced characterisation techniques
- electrode and cell development
- battery manufacturing and scale-up
- modelling and simulation
- AI or data-driven approaches for materials discovery
- recycling and sustainable battery technologies
You should demonstrate the ability, or strong potential, to develop internationally recognised research through publications, collaborative projects, funding activity, and engagement with academic and industrial partners.
Candidates applying at Associate Professor level should demonstrate an established research profile and evidence of academic leadership, while Assistant Professor candidates should demonstrate strong potential to develop an independent and impactful research trajectory within a collaborative environment.
We particularly welcome candidates who are enthusiastic about interdisciplinary working, industrial collaboration, and translating research into meaningful real-world impact.
